Another week goes by...

Another week has flown by. Have absolutely no idea where the time goes at all!

So here's a list of things that I've been up to the last week or so:

1. Working on the new Bento Brothers track. As soon as it is ready for release it will no doubt be posted on this blog for your listening pleasure. The Bento Brothers are being particularly secretive about this one and have refused to comment on it at all, other than mention that it does 'rock the jams'.

2. 'Robot fest'. The lunatics took over the asylum down near Toyama airport as all sorts of robots (and not so-robots) were packed into a big hall.
Incidently, a good game to play is 'real or robot' - an enthralling game where contestants have to decide if the object in front of them is a real person or a robot. This game proves particularly difficult when driving along the expressway and deciding whether the 'wavey-hand men' are real or robot. Please try it- it really passes the time on long car journeys.

3. School: Ticking by nicely, although the timetable keeps on getting changed and sometimes it's difficult to keep track of what lessons I have and haven't taught!

4. Elementary school concert: My elementary school had a concert to thank all the people who came and worked there (including your humble blog-writer). I had absolutely no idea until I found myself in a room of suited Japanese being briefed on what was coming up, and then walking into a hall full of people applauding. I was the only one not wearing a suit, having decided that morning to go casual - black and rather tatty leather jacket and all! Whoops! But all went well despite said cock-up! (Saturday)5. TV interview: Yes another one! This is getting ridiculous! But this time I had to talk about my school in England, which people are absolutely fascinated about in Japan as it looks very similar to Hogwarts from Harry Potter. They also told me that from now on they want me to do an interview every month about something else about English life! Yikes! So next month, ladies and gentlemen - the drinking culture in England! (Friday)

6. Noticing how quickly the weather is changing...winter approaching!
